5.0 out of 5 stars Understand property law by taking a trip into the past!, Dec 3 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Archaeology, Relics, and the Law (Hardcover)
A well written and neatly organized case book. It takes advanced legal concepts of property and plays them out in the context of archarology. I can't think of a more interesting and enthralling manner to learn the law of finds than through the story of the Central America!

Cunningham's book is a delight. Almost makes me want to go take his class in person at UC HASTINGS!

3.0 out of 5 stars Dry as a mouthful of crackers in a desert, April 28 2010
By Snowlock - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Archaeology, Relics And the Law (Hardcover)
I ended up using this book in a law school course. Mainly because it is the only game in town if you are considering anything about archaeology and the law. There is no other book. Which is rather usual for law books, there aren't too many books written on professional niches like this. That being said it was terribly dry, and could likely be summed up by saying that in 90% of cases you look to see if there is a state law, then look to see if there is a federal law covering the incident. If on point.. apply. Rinse. repeat.

If you are intensely into the archaeology it may be interesting to see how the legal system plays out for different cases you may or may not have heard of, and why the court decided the way it did. From a legal standpoint, it was like a boring version of Administrative Law... which for those who know, is a rather scathing review.

I always like to end book reviews on a positive note, so this book was an excellent soporific and completely cured my insomnia! Excellent for its purpose.
